thermochemical methane reforming consisting of two steps on Cu/Fe/Zr mixed oxide media was carried out using a fixed bed infrared reactor. In the first step, the metal oxide was reduced with methane to produce CO, $H_2$ and the reduced metal oxide in the temperature of 1173 K. In the second step, the reduced metal oxide was re-oxidized with steam to produce $H_2$ and the metal oxide in the temperature of 973 K. The reaction characteristics on the added amounts of Cu in Cu/Fe/Zr mixed oxide media and the cyclic tests were evaluated. With the increase of the added amount of Cu in Cu/Fe/Zr mixed oxide media, the conversion of $CH_4$, the selectivity of $CO_2$ and the $H_2/CO$ molar ratio were increased, while the selectivity of CO was decreased in the first step. On the other hand, the evolved amount of $H_2$ was decreased with increasing the added amount of Cu in the second step. The $Cu_xFe_{3-x}O_4/ZrO_2$ medium added with Cu of x = 0.7 showed good regeneration properties in the 10th cyclic tests indicating that the medium had high durability. In addition, the gasification of the deposited carbon in the water splitting step was promoted with the addition of Cu in the media.

This study was aimed at the development of catalysts for the direct methanol synthesis by partial oxidation of methane. Mo-Bi-V-Al mixed oxide catalysts were prepared and characterized and used in the direct methanol synthesis reaction. The catalysts prepared by the sol-gel method had much larger surface areas than those prepared by the co-precipitation method. The larger the surface area was, the less the methanol selectivity was. The catalysts having larger surface area facilitate the complete oxidation of methane, decreasing the selectivity of methanol. The catalysts prepared by the sol-gel method showed higher methanol selectivity of 13% at $20^{\circ}C$ lower temperature than those prepared by the co-precipitation method. Through XRD analysis, it was revealed that the structures of the catalysts prepared by the two methods were different. In the reaction, methanol selectivity increased and carbon dioxide selectivity decreased with pressure due to the suppression of complete oxidation reaction at a high pressure.

The oxidation of various benzyl ethers and benzyl alkyl ethers to benzoates has been studied in two-phase system of $CH_3CO_2Et$ and aqueous NaOCl (6.6 mol eq.). The oxidant N-oxo-4-methoxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidium bromide (N-oxoammonium salt) was prepared in situ and recycled by addition of 4-methoxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (0.03 mol eq., 4-methoxy-TEMPO), co-catalyst KBr (0.03mol eq.) and second oxidant NaOCl. Thus the catalytic amount of 4-methoxy-TEMPO was used. An adjustment of the pH value of below 8.0 was also required for this reaction with 2.5 hr of reaction time at 0∼5$^{\circ}C$. Under these conditions benzyl ethers were oxidized to benzoates. The selectivity of oxidation of benzyl alkyl ethers is dependent on the acidity of hydrogen and steric effect of alkyl group.

지구 온난화 현상의 주된 원인인 CO2 가스의 분해를 위해, 스트론튬 페라이트를 이용한 CO2 가스 분해 반응에 대해 연구하였다. CO2 가스 분해를 위한 반응 매체로 스피넬형 조성과 마그네토프롬바이트형 조성의 스트론튬 페라이트 미세분말을 공침법으로 제조한 후, H2 가스로 환원시켜 산소부족형 스트론튬 페라이트 분말을 제조하였다. 이 산소부족형 스트론튬 페라이트 분말은 CO2 가스를 환원, 분해시키면서 산화된다. 이러한 원리를 이용한 CO2 분해 반응에서 스피넬형 조성 스트론튬 페라이트 분말이 마그네토프롬바이트형 조성 분말 보다 빠르게 많은 양의 CO2 가스를 분해 시켰다. 페라이트 중의 스트론튬이 산화·환원 반응을 촉진시키는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다.

A kinetic study was carried out for the redox reaction of cis-$[Co(en)_2(N_3)_2]^+$ with Fe(II) in acidic solution by spectrophotometric methods. This redox reaction system have been found to show a third order for overall reaction as the respective first order with respect to reactant cis-$[Co(en)_2(N_3)_2]^+$, Fe(II), and $H^+$ catalyst. The activation parameters, ${\Delta}H^{\neq}$ and ${\Delta}S^{\neq}$, were obtained as 14.2Kcal/mol and -16.7 e.u., respectively. On the basis of the kinetic data, we suggest that the redox reaction system proceeds via inner sphere mechanism. The rate equation derived from the proposed mechanism is in agreement with the observed rate equation.

In this study, the effect of $Pt/TiO_2$ catalysts on the CO oxidation reaction at room temperature was investigated using various $TiO_2$ supports with different physical properties to compare and evaluate $Pt/TiO_2$ catalysts. Physicochemical properties of the catalyst were alanyzed using XPS, CO-chemisorption, BET, and CO-TPD. As a result, when the active particle diameter was smaller, while the metal dispersion and surface area were larger, the CO room temperature oxidation reaction was better. These physical properties increased the number of active sites, causing the target material to increase the adsorption amount of CO. In addition, when the $O_2$-consumption increased, the CO-room temperature oxidation reaction activity increased due to the excellent oxygen-transferring ability.

We have investigated the photocatalytic activity for the decomposition of methyl orange on the pure $LaCoO_3$ and metal ion doped $LaCoO_3$ perovskite-typeoxides prepared using microwave process. In the case of pure $LaCoO_3$ and cesium ion doped $LaCoO_3$ catalysts, the formation of the perovskite crystalline phase was confirmed regardless of the preparation method. From the results of UV-Vis DRS, the pure $LaCoO_3$ and cesium ion doped $LaCoO_3$ catalysts have the similar absorption spectrum up to visible region. The chemisorbed oxygen plays an important role on the photocatalytic decomposition of methyl orange and the higher the contents of chemisorbed oxygen, the better performance of photocatalyst.

워싱턴주 벤쿠버시 Bonneville 전력소 전주 보관 지역내 PCP와 creosote 오염토양 2g 당 0.020g heme에 0.108g $H_2O$$_2$을 혼합한 산화방법과 0.035g hemoglobin에 0.324g $H_2O$$_2$을 혼합한 산화방법을 비교ㆍ조사하였다. 오염토양에 $^{14}$ C-PCP을 첨가한 다음에 $^{14}$ C의 물질수지를 조사한 결과, 24시간동안 반응 후 $^{14}$ $CO_2$는 heme 과 hemoglobin반응에서는 각각 3.50g와 3.88% 생산되었다. $^{14}$ C 물질수지 분포는 heme 촉매 산화반응에서 용매 상에 43.01% 토양 상에는 46.03%이고, hemoglobin 촉매 산화반응에서는 용매 상에 39.21%와 토양 상에 51.25%로 비슷한 분포를 보였다. 실험실 규모 pan 실험에서 초기 PCP농도 273$\pm$20 mg/kg과 TPH 6379$\pm$45 mg/kg인 오염토양에서 hemoglobin 촉매 산화 반응이 초기반응을 제외하고 7일 이후 반응에서 heme 촉매 산화반응보다 빠르게 분해되었고, 35일 반응 이후 PCP는 10 mg/kg 이하의 값을 나타내었고, TPH도 유사한 결과를 보여 주었다. 그러므로 건조 hemoglobin과 과산화수소에 의한 PCP 오염토양 복원기술은 분해율이 높고 경제성을 가지고 있으므로 기존의 복원공정을 대안으로 제시될 수 있다.

This work was conducted to investigate the oxidation characteristics of methane having the highest ignition temperature among the other hydrocarbon gases using transition metal catalysts. The catalyst used for methane oxidation was manganese oxide having a various oxidation number, such as MnO, $MnO_2$, $Mn_2O_3$, $Mn_3O_4$, $Mn_4O_5$. The manganese oxide(MnxOy) catalyst is impregnated on $TiO_2$, $Al_2O_3$ for methane oxidation. To enhanced both of activity and life time of catalysts, Ni and Co was used as a promoter. In this study, various co-catalysts were synthesized by using excess wet impregnation method. The effect of reaction temperature and space velocity was measured to calculate the activity of catalysts such as, activation energy of $T_{50}$, and $T_{90}$. The life time of bi-metallic manganese mixture, such as Mn-Co and Mn-Ni catalysts, were increased more 10 % than manganese oxide catalyst, but activity of those was decreased slightly.
